Chapter Two Thousand and Ninety-Eight

Three combinations and one group, so to speak, the seed powerhouse is about to start colliding.

Hearing the rules below, there was a shock.

In the group stage, the seeded players are divided into 72 groups and will not meet in advance, while in the second stage of the knockout round, the three groups are combined, and each group will have at least one seeded powerhouse, and the strong will collide.

won the three places that qualified, and the top 72 of the hidden dragon list were truly born.

As for why you don't directly take the first place in the group stage and form the top 72, you are also afraid that there will be a pearl, after all, when you meet Duguyu, Long Zhen, Zhu Hongxue, those top Tianjiao groups, it is equivalent to directly losing the hope of qualifying.

Therefore, three people were taken from each group, and then combined screening was carried out to ensure that the 72 strong did not have any moisture.

After the dean read out the rules.

The first of each group walked out.

Start drawing number plates.

Long Xiaoshan pulled out a number plate with a red nine-character written on it, nine groups!

At this time, the people who drew the number plate began to match the numbers.

"I'm group seven. ”

"I'm group thirteen. ”

"I'm group nineteen. ”

An individual began to merge with a number plate, and some people were still happy and some worried, and when they met the group led by Tianjiao, a giant of the top ten levels in the last session, they would naturally secretly call it unlucky.

However, the genius who can get to this point has far more self-confidence than ordinary people.

What's more, there are three qualifying places in each group, as long as it is not unlucky and draws to the group of death, then there is still hope.

Long Xiaoshan soon saw the other two groups that also drew the number nine.

They were the original twenty-nine and forty-four groups.

The twenty-ninth group is led by the Taixu son of Xuyue Tower, who ranked thirty-fifth in the last session.

The forty-four group, led by Li Haoran of Changgemen, is the first big dark horse to overturn Li Changfeng of the Feiyan Sword Sect, and is praised by many people as one of the strongest new stars of this year.

Such a grouping is not too good, but it is not bad either.

At least not in the top 10.

At least Taixu Gongzi and Li Haoran thought so, as for Long Xiaoshan, he didn't care too much about grouping.

However, there is one person in the twenty-ninth group, his face does not know whether he is excited or afraid, when he sees the group, his fists are clenched, it is Wang Ao who has fought in the academy, he fought hundreds of rounds with Taixu Gongzi in the group stage, and finally lost a move and ranked second.

End of grouping.

Everyone was given a half-day break.

Of course, no one left the rooftop.

They sat down, recovered, and waited for the second stage of the knockout rounds.

Xiahou Mulan walked to Long Xiaoshan's side.

She showed Long Xiaoshan the group she drawn, which was the eleventh group, but her luck was not good, although she did not meet the top ten giants, but the other two group leaders, one ranked twenty-two in the last session, and one ranked forty-nine in the previous session, and the rankings were higher than her.

Coupled with the second place in the other two groups, the newcomer with unknown strength in the third place, the second stage of the knockout round may be a hard battle.

Of course, Xiahou Mulan's expression was still calm and cold.

I don't see any nervousness.

Long Xiaoshan has not yet seen where Xiahou Mulan's bottom line is, based on his observation, Xiahou Mulan should be hiding her strength, as for how much she has hidden, it depends on the game that will be waiting.

The two didn't talk much.

In fact, except for the first month, Xiahou Mulan was in charge of monitoring Long Xiaoshan and followed him all day long, and after a period of time, Long Xiaoshan had been in retreat in the Dragon Pool to prepare for the battle, so naturally there was no need to monitor it anymore.

Moreover, after the Battle of the Hidden Dragon, Xiahou Mulan will go out to practice.

The task of monitoring Long Xiaoshan no longer exists.

Time flies.

The second stage of the knockout round has begun.

The audience, who was originally slightly silent, was in an uproar again, the atmosphere was warm, and the second stage was definitely more exciting than the first stage, after all, to get this far, it was definitely a genius in a million.

And what is even more exciting is the peak showdown of those who are seed-powered.

Crash!

The golden light film on the rooftop changed, and the original seventy-two equal rings became twenty-four, and the range of the ring became larger, and the projection of the light curtain was also increased accordingly.

Let the battle of Tianjiao in the ring appear more clearly in front of everyone.

Nine people from the nine groups walked to the ninth ring.

The referee took out the spirit weapon, and the nine names on the spirit weapon shone brightly, and he pressed the button, and the light flowed, falling on the two names.

"Duan Feng, Li Haoran!"

Rumble!

Both on the edge of the ring and in the audience, there was a roar.

No one expected that the first game was the battle for the top spot of the two groups, Duan Feng was the real name of Taixu Gongzi, and Li Haoran defeated Li Changfeng in the group stage and won the first place in the group strongly, and was also known as one of the biggest dark horses.

The battle between the two naturally became the focus.

None of the other players in the ring came to the top so quickly, so even most of the fighters looked at ring nine.

The two jumped up.

Duan Feng, the prince of Taixu, was dressed in white, his skin was very white, and he was extremely handsome, but his eyes were a little cyan like excessive wine, a pair of peach blossom eyes, and he was suave, and at first glance he was a character among thousands of flowers.

Li Haoran is dressed as a scholar, holding a big pen with a wolf in his hand, he looks very young, baby-faced, and a little green, but no one will underestimate him because of his appearance, and defeating Li Changfeng has proved his strength.

After the two took the stage, their expressions were very calm, showing strong self-confidence, of course, self-confidence does not equal arrogance, in fact, the two of them are loose on the outside and tight on the inside, adjusting the state to the peak, like a volcano about to erupt.

The prince giggled, and the folding fan in his hand was opened, and there were a hundred beauties depicted on it, and it was said that these hundred beauties were all the prey of his wandering flowers, and each one was a unique beauty.

"Little brother, don't be so serious, I am a good brother with Li Mubai of your Changge Sect, by the way, you are also surnamed Li, what is the relationship between the two of you?" Duan Feng said.

Li Haoran was stunned and said, "Do you know my brother?"

"Of course, didn't he come from the last session? It's a pity that he is too old this time, did he come?"

"My brother is here, and he came with me. ”

"It's here, good, it's good, I haven't been with him for a long time, and when the game is over, I must find him to have a few drinks, little brother, you are also with you." Duan Feng said with a smile.

"Qinglou, my brother will go to the Qinglou, no...... No way. Li Haoran changed color.

Changgemen's cultivation is Haoran righteousness, it is a Confucianism and Taoism sect, and it has always been the most important to talk about the style, Li Mubai is his eldest brother, and he is also the eldest disciple of Changgemen's generation, he has always been admired by him, how can he go to a filthy place like Qinglou.

The moment Li Haoran's heart fluctuated.

Duan Feng's eyes flashed with a trace of cold light, and his figure disappeared abruptly, taking Li Haoran's middle door like lightning.

Bang!

Li Haoran flew out directly and hit the golden shield.
